Viet Nam to take fight to terrorists
A Vietnamese government representative renewed the country's support for the UN's role in promoting international cooperation to counter terrorism at the fifth ASEM anti-terrorism conference, in Tokyo on May 16.
Nguyen Ba Son, Head of the International Law Department of the Foreign Ministry, made the affirmation when he led the Vietnamese delegation to the conference.
He said that the Southeast Asian country would soon join the 1979 International Convention Against the Taking of Hostages and the 1997 International Convention against Terrorist Bombings, which will earn Viet Nam membership in as many as 10 anti-terrorism international conventions.
The conference took place in Tokyo on May 15-16 and focused on how to maximise efforts by Asian and European nations in the war on terror./.
